Hello. I use RMXP.
In one map I have Shiva a guardian of dreams - She gives you a quest - you must bring her the Water skin, which you can get from Rikka,the guardian of water. But : Rikka should not give you the Water skin before you talk to Shiva, instead she first should introduce herself, then if you first talked to Shiva she should say : Ah so Shiva send you to retrieve the Water skin from me? Fine, here you go. And then you should return to Shiva and give her the Water skin and she should thank you. Ofcourse if you do not have the Water skin Shiva should tell you : You do not have the Water skin, return when you have it! And Shiva should also introduce herself before she gives you the quest. And when you give Shiva the Water skin Rikka should wish you good luck.

I know it has something to do with switches, but I cannot figure it out properly.

Can someone please help me?

THANX

Shiva: First page- Make her give quest. turn on self-switch A and switch1
       Second page- self-switch pre-condition. Message saying that you haven't gotten item yet.
       Third page- switch2 precondition. Give reward

Rikka: First page- A message
       Second page- switch1 precondition. Turn on self-switch, give item.
       Third page- self-switch precondition. Say that she gave it.

This is really easy to do. For the learning experience, I recommend you try and do this with variables. Also, remember how this quest will be done as it is quite basic. Also go into an analysis of why this works. That should help you. :)

Bah, screw that. I hate doing screenshots. >:( There are tutorials already made for quests. Here. I have an idea. USE THE SEARCH BAR. I can't believe how easy it was so I'm pretty not-calm. >:( I assume you want help for a quest and you want a tutorial so type in "quest tutorial" in the search bar. That's the thing up at the top next to the button that says "search." Scroll down to the topic titled "[REQUEST] Quest Tutorial RPGMXP" by Himanshu that's not even on the second page. It's even barely half-way down the search results. If you really need help, do a find on 28.4% relevance on the page. Look at Yami's post.

Oh dear moo, someone's upset.

It's true that to get better, you need to do a little bit of the work yourself, patmi.

In this case it is a very easy event. To understand switches, you should find a post by Zeriab and click on the link in his signature. Also, since this is an item quest, you can use a conditional branch based on an item being in your possession. But yes, please do read the tutorial that Zeriab links to, it's very good and will help you immensely.

Patmi, I think you should first read what tutorial that already exist here, and then after you read it you ask anything else you don't understand.

At least you have the basics.

Be kind, everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.
